On my walk with the dogs last night, I noticed the pieces of tree blossoms on the street and in yards. I reliazed I hadn't ever looked closely at a whole one, but loved the orange color in the pieces.
Just as we were getting home, I found a whole one and found the orange makes a star when you look at it head on.
Coming into the house, I put the blossom on the mantel while I disengaged leashes and flipped on the lights.
Then I saw the glow from this flower. Isn't it beautiful?
P.S. Anonymous got it, the flowers yesterday were from my Chives.
What we call a Tulip Tree in our neighborhood has pink flowers. They don't seem to last long, but are so very pretty. I love this orange one.
ReplyDeleteP.S. What does it take to make chives bloom? I've never seen a flower on any of my herbs.
ReplyDeleteMerry,
ReplyDeletein my case, benign neglect produced blooms. which i think in turn become new plants, but I'm not sure.
I've never seen a tulip poplar flower this color. Unusual and so pretty.
